STEP 2. Check the following connectors.

• HBB connector B-17 and B-18

Check connectors for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or
terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are the connectors and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair the faulty connector or terminal and then go to

Step 10.

STEP 3. Check the HBB ground circuit at HBB harness
connector B-17.

(1) Disconnect HBB connector B-17 and measure at the

harness connector (component side).

(2) Measure the resistance between terminal 7 and ground.

The resistance should measure less than 2 ohms.

Q: Is the measured resistance less than 2 ohms?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair the harness wire between HBB connector

B-17 (terminal 7) and ground. Then go to Step 10.

STEP 4. Check the HBB ground circuit at HBB harness
connector B-18.

(1) Disconnect HBB connector B-18 and measure at the

harness connector (component side).

(2) Measure the resistance between terminal 32 and ground.

The resistance should measure less than 2 ohms.

Q: Is the measured resistance less than 2 ohms?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair the harness wire between HBB connector

B-18 (terminal 32) and ground. Then go to Step 10.

STEP 5. Check the HBB (continuity and resistance test of
the pump motor).

(1) Disconnect HBB connectors B-17 and B-18.

(2) Check for continuity and measure the resistance between

terminals at the HBB connectors.

Q: Does continuity exist between above terminals?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Check the pump motor and lead wire.

(1) Remove the HBB (Refer to

P.35A-137

).

(2) Remove the pump motor and the lead wire from the HBB

(Refer to

P.35A-140

).

(3) Check the following items:

• Confirm that the pump motor operates when the battery

voltage is imposed at the pump motor terminal.

• Confirm the continuity of the lead wire.

Q: Are both of the pump motor and the lead wire in good

condition?
YES : Replace the master cylinder and hydraulic unit

assembly (Refer to

P.35A-140

). Then go to Step 10.

NO : Replace the pump motor or the lead wire (Refer to

P.35A-140

). Then go to Step 10.

STEP 7. Check the following connector.

• M-ASTC-ECU connector E-119

Check connector, for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or
terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are the connector and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Repair the faulty connector or terminal and then go to

Step 10.
